📋 About This Mod
An ongoing project with the goal of bringing Skyrim's Worldspace to a more updated level of detail with new locations, improved locations, and more interesting encounters, all while generally sticking to Bethesda's style of level design, and with performance and mod compatibility for the average player in mind.

Ryn's Faendal's House
Sticking to the idea that Faendal is a hunter, I've done fairly little to change how Faendal's house feels from vanilla Skyrim, as I feel they did a good job in showing his role in the community through the items in his house.
Instead, I focused mostly on the organization of his home, and the livability of it. The "touch of realism" I believe was most of what Faendal's home needed here.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,444 endorsements and nearly 740k downloads.
- ESL-flagged means it's light on your load order—no plugin limit worries.
- Adds immersion to a vanilla house that's often overlooked.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Faendal's House—if you're looking for a broader overhaul, this won't cover it.
- Last updated in April 2023, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or mods.
For Skyrim players who want to spruce up Riverwood's NPC homes without a massive overhaul. If you're a completionist who likes every house to feel lived-in, this is a nice touch. Skip if you want gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's ESL-flagged, you can safely add it to your load order without worrying about the 255 plugin limit.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop.
- If you're using other Riverwood overhauls, check for conflicts in the interior cell—load order might matter.
